  1. Well, I'm not about to paint them soon, as they're scheduled around 2034 (joke aside, it's been one year since I started painting Conan, and after I've finished the miniature I'm painting now, I'll have done only 25% of them :blink:)... but anyway, I think I'm gonna give them a full black armour (obviously) with hints of gold, just like I did for my Heroquest Chaos warriors back in the 90s. As for the clothed part on their shoulder, I'm not sure yet. Maybe purple.

  2. Fenryll's miniatures may add to that disparity of scales.

    As you see, the Innkeeper and the maid are quite tall, even to N'gora (not to speak to the tiny Savage Bêlit), while the prisoner looks quite small, mostly because he's bending over.

     

    For me, the downside of the Corinthia villagers is that they seem to me to be "outdoor commoners" (carrying grain or water, exploring a dark area). Those actions don't fit well with inside maps... and that's why I chose to add some variety as well as commoners fitting to specific maps.

    I have to ask a difficult question here.... does the community want this? I ask because apart from @Footballzs there aren't other playtesters coming forward. I know some people are excited about Batman but nonetheless wouldn't we by now expect more people to be demonstrating some kind of excitement about this campaign?

     

    Hi there. I find this Community Generated Campaign really interesting. I thought about joining the team to write a scenario, but then I was somewhat afraid by the tremendous amount of work in order to create, not a catchy story per se, but a balanced and interesting game. So I was very glad that people braver than I answered to the call of @Matt John S.

     

    I haven't proposed to be playtester, because I'm going to start the Campaign Devil of Iron, with my regular players (this very saturday). As a matter of fact, I don't play Conan as much as I wish. I haven't yet had the time to play @drmauric's thrilling scenario with the gals punching that giant, and it was, like, months ago. :$

     

    So, I just wanted to stress that, even if the English-speaking forum may be quiet, it doesn't necessarily means that people don't care.

  4. Thanks for the tip, @Epaka!

     

    I didn't get as large splatters as you. I guess it will take some practice, but I think the result has improved my Bêlit a bit.

    Before                                                                                                                                                        After (added some more shade and blood splatter)

    As I was afraid to get blood in her face (mostly in her eyes) I used a small tape to cover her face. The downside is that now, her head is too clean in contrast to her body...

  5. Welcome around, @ronveer and thanks for sharing your work regarding this matter.

     

    You might be interested in a topic of the French-Speaking community which was looking for miniatures in the same spirit as yours:

    https://the-overlord.com/index.php?/topic/1480-kit-de-parité-pour-les-héros/

    You'll find there ideas by @Doucefeuille and @Edouard Le sec of feminine proxies of male characters or substitute for the scantily clad female characters.

  6. I should check on the physical map, but I think you're right, @Footballzs. :smile:

     

    On the other hand, I've read in the French-speaking forum that most of the line of sight of this map aren't used in the official scenarii (so far), du to the darkness of the undergrounds. Still, the info could be interesting for custom scenarii. :wink:
